Free Picks
THE PLAY: Denver Nuggets +2.5 (-110)
Take Denver (#539)
This ‘double gamer’ video has opinions for Nuggets - Rockets AND Warriors - Blazers on Friday Night. The Steven Adams flu diagnosis matters for Houston tonight. That's a key absence in a game where David Adelman's squad is focused, hungry and primed to bang in the paint with a Rockets team that has relied on their size to beat up smaller squads. Live dog! Take the Nuggets
THE PLAY: Kansas City Chiefs -3.0 (-121)
Take Kansas City (#254)
It's circle the wagons time for the 5-5 Chiefs, currently on the outside looking in at the AFC Playoff picture. They're catching Indy off an OT win in Berlin against the Falcons and a bye week. But Indy lost defensive line stud DeForest Buckner to injury, and their secondary is still banged up as well, bad news against a KC squad with something to prove on Sunday… and the talent to prove it. Take the Chiefs.
THE PLAY: USC +10.5 (-109)
Take USC (#181)
Oregon might be 9-1 SU, but it's certainly not like the Ducks have beaten up on many quality foes this season. They lost SU at home in their toughest test, smacked by Indiana. They barely escaped with a two point win in their second toughest test, at Iowa. The Ducks have been -18.5 or higher in every other game but one, and the OT win at Penn State doesn't look quite so impressive now, does it? USC is no joke, primed to give Dan Lenning's squad a real battle on Saturday. Take the Trojans.
THE PLAY: North Carolina +7.0 (-115)
Take North Carolina (#146)
The wiseguys fell in love with Duke in September and haven't stopped betting on the Blue Devils since, offering legitimate value for those willing to fade the mistake-prone Blue Devils. Bill Belichick's Tar Heels have played better than the final score would indicate four times in their last five games, something of an undervalued commodity down the stretch, in a series that seems to come down to the wire every year. Live dog here!
THE PLAY: Florida +4.5 (-115)
Take Florida (#137)
Tennessee has made crucial mistakes at inopportune times; costing them multiple games this season – mistakes like the 99 yard pick six before halftime against Alabama, for example. The Gators defense has been adept at forcing opposing teams to MAKE mistakes. That makes Florida a live home dog in the Swamp on Saturday Night - expect a battle, not a blowout.
THE PLAY: Total Under 43.0 (-110)
Take Missouri - Oklahoma UNDER (#155-156)
I'm not enamored with the Sooners skill position weapons; a team settling for too many field goals and not producing many ‘big play’ touchdowns. Missouri is playing with a backup QB on the highway against an elite defense; not optimal conditions for lighting up the scoreboard. Expect a relatively low scoring affair. Take the UNDER.
THE PLAY: Hawaii +3.0 (-118)
Take Hawaii (#117)
UNLV has had a tough time covering pointspreads at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, failing repeatedly in this ‘home favorite’ role in recent weeks. Hawaii has an explosive offense and they've shown the ability to compete on the highway; ‘live underdogs’ on Friday Night in Sin City. Take the points!

Consultant Bio
Ted Sevransky (better known as Teddy Covers) moved to Las Vegas to bet on sports full-time back in 1998 and he's been doing it successfully ever since. During that time, Teddy has been featured prominently in the mainstream press. Print highlights include the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, Boston Globe, Las Vegas Review Journal and Playboy magazine. Television highlights include CBS This Morning, CNBC, PBS and Bloomberg TV. Teddy starred in the recent sports betting documentary Life on the Line and has been featured in an ESPN 30-for-30 and on Showtime's 'Action' miniseries.
Teddy is a 1992 University of Michigan graduate. His handicapping approach is fine tuned for the modern betting marketplace in 2025; a market that is dominated by stat-based quants - the ‘sharp money’. In one sentence, Teddy looks to identify and identify and isolate 'morphing' teams -- teams that are currently playing at a different level or pace (better or worse; faster or slower) than their long term statistical profile would indicate. Those become teams to bet on, bet against, bet over and bet under, until the quants catch up with current realities and value them correctly.
This ‘Ride the Hot & Fade the Cold’ approach has allowed Teddy to provide for himself and his family with steady income from his sports betting winnings, over nearly three decades. And those decades of experience grinding it out in Vegas enables Teddy to avoid many of the traps and pitfalls that befall ‘cappers. Experience DOES matter in this business. Teddy is one bettor who can handle the highs and lows of this sometimes zany and always exciting business with consistent, calm professionalism.
